The Alistair thing is insane and has no basis in canon; he's always clearly been a moderately tan dude with white features. I don't have a problem with people drawing him POC, but Bioware cemented his look in Inquisition and it was clearly what had been in their minds all along.

However, there's actually a REAL discussion to be had about racism in the fandom around Isabela, with all the "prettier Isabela" mods that made her super white-skinned and blue-eyed, and people insisting she was originally white in Origins when she's legitimately the second darkest tone in the character creator. The devs stated she was always POC and people really showed their asses in how they reacted to that, bending over backwards to justify why she "couldn't" be that dark in DA2. It was gross. People need to let the Alistair thing go and look at the genuine shitshow that's happening behind it.
